Gifts of Stock

A gift of appreciated securities – stocks, bonds or mutual funds – can provide significant tax benefits that reduce the net cost of your gift when compared with an equal gift of cash. If you wish to make a gift of stock to Booth Museum, contact the Development Department at 770-387-1541 or dianeh@boothmuseum.org.

Charitable IRA Rollover

As a result of the permanent extension of the IRA charitable rollover, individuals age 70 ½ can make gifts directly from their IRA to charity. The distribution is not included in the donor’s adjusted gross income so there is not payment of additional tax on a qualified distribution.

A legacy gift to Booth Western Art Museum enables you to further the good work of an organization you support and leave a lasting legacy that honors the causes you are most passionate about. A charitable bequest can help you save estate taxes by providing your estate with a charitable deduction for the value of your gift and allowing the full value of your gift to be transferred tax free.

A bequest may be made in several ways:
